BRC · RULES BRC.1–BRC.6
Breaches & Account Actions
BRC.1
Classification of Breaches
BRC.1.1 Two classes
Every violation is either a Hard Breach (BRC.2) or a Soft Breach (BRC.3).
BRC.1.2 The difference in one line
A Hard Breach permanently terminates the account and forfeits profit. A Soft Breach adjusts or closes the offending trades — or pauses trading — but the account stays alive.
BRC.2
Hard Breaches
BRC.2.1 What counts as a Hard Breach
Reaching the Daily Loss Limit or the Maximum Loss Limit (TR.1, TR.2 and TR.3);
Inactivity beyond the applicable period (TR.8);
Breaking the risk-per-Trade-Idea rule, including a floating or realised loss exceeding 2% on a trade or Trade Idea without a stop-loss (TR.4);
Using any prohibited trading practice, or violating any trading rule (the PROH book);
Weekend holding on Direct accounts (MKT.2);
A news-window violation on the Direct / Direct Fly Model (MKT.1);
A news-window execution on 2-Step Fly Phase 1 or Phase 2 , 1-Step Fly Phase 1 and Direct Fly (Take Off Mode). (MKT.1);
Weekend holding on any 2-Step Fly and 1-Step Fly account, including the Sim. Funded Account (MKT.2);
BRC.2.2 Effect
The account is permanently closed, and all simulated profits and pending rewards are forfeited — subject only to the exception in BRC.4. A breached Funded Account cannot be reset (ACC.1.4); a breached Challenge can be restarted by buying a new account.
BRC.3
Soft Breaches
BRC.3.1 What a Soft Breach is
A minor violation that does not close the account: the offending trades are closed out and you continue on the account.
BRC.3.2 The Soft Breaches
News trading on a 2-Step Pro Funded Account — profits from trades executed in the restricted window are reversed (MKT.1);
Weekend holding on a 2-Step Pro Funded Account — open trades are auto-closed at 15:45 EST Friday and the account is disabled until Monday (MKT.2);
Exceeding the open-lot cap on a 2-Step Pro Funded Account — trades are auto-closed and excess profit deducted, with escalation on repeat (TR.5.2);
BRC.3.3 You stay responsible
If a system closure or deduction pushes your account through a Daily or Maximum Loss Limit, that breach is still yours.
BRC.4
The Profitable Daily-Loss Exception
BRC.4.1 The exception
If a profitable Funded Account breaches only the Daily Loss Limit, you can still receive 100% of your simulated profits and any applicable reimbursements or rewards — provided both of the following are true:
no single trade produced a simulated profit or loss greater than 1% of the initial balance; and every trade had a stop-loss applied.
BRC.4.2 Its limits
If either condition fails, or the breach involves prohibited trading or any other hard-rule violation, the account is treated as fully breached and everything is forfeited. The exception never applies to a Maximum Loss Limit breach.
In plain words
This exception rewards exactly the habits the Rulebook asks for: small, defined risk on every trade and a stop-loss without exception. Trade that way and even a bad day may not cost you your earned profit.
BRC.5
Reviews, Investigations & Appeals
BRC.5.1 We monitor continuously
Risk and Compliance monitor accounts and trading activity at all times — daily reconciliations, maker-checker controls, and surprise audits.
BRC.5.2 Information requests
We may email you from an official address asking for information or documents — travel records, EA source code, and similar. Reply within the stated timeframe; not responding can lead to termination (ELG.3.6).
BRC.5.3 Pre-funding review
Your entire challenge is reviewed for compliance before a Funded Account is issued (EVL.3).
BRC.5.4 Appeals
If you dispute an account action, raise it through official support channels (GEN.6). Traders in the Prime Consistency Programme can request a discretionary review after 90 compliant days (PCP.4). Outcomes remain within Hola Prime’s discretion (GEN.1).
BRC.6
Suspension, Termination & Effect
BRC.6.1 Grounds
An account can be suspended or terminated for a Hard Breach, inactivity, prohibited trading, a compliance failure, restricted-region access, or a violation of the Terms of Service.
BRC.6.2 Effect
On termination you lose access to the affected trading account, and a breached account’s simulated profits and pending rewards are forfeited (subject to BRC.4).
BRC.6.3 Coming back
You can purchase a new account from the dashboard after a breach, subject to any programme conditions — for example, the Prime Consistency Programme (PCP).
BRC.6.4 Prohibited trading
Where prohibited trading is found, Hola Prime may immediately restrict all services and terminate without prior warning and without any refund (FEE.6).
